A new world will arise out of the religious mists when we approach our Bible with the idea that it is … a book which is now speaking.
2 Timothy 3:16–17 NIV
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
All Scripture…

…and is useful for…
Teaching

So that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work
What a tragedy for any Christian to be labeled as spiritually unprepared for a task when the means of instruction and preparation are readily at hand!
